Pheathers – Diagonal Lines of Swallows

The swallows living near the Delaware Bay were everywhere, swooping through the air to eat greenhead flies and other insects. I also saw several in the heat of mid-day cooling themselves by fluttering and lifting their wings in the breeze.

Another choice for Cee’s Challenge was this little getaway spot underneath the deck of a beach house. A stack of lobster buoys hung nearby, the stairs a perfect diagonal from deck to the ground.

I laughed when I saw your birds on the wires. There were four wires outside my office window. One day there were a number of birds there. In my mind I discarded one of the five music staff lines and used the birds as notes. I sang the music the birds indicated.

Oh Anne…that is one of the coolest and most fun things I have heard of…You know…my mindset will forever be changed by this…I will always be looking for a birdy song to sing. Oh my…I can’t wait to tell my family this tomorrow when we celebrate the Fourth. You are a treasure!

Anne, now I feel something bubbling up in me that makes me feel that I might start singing everything. When I sing I feel like I’m singing unto the Lord. He’ll send the notes in nature…just like your birds. I feel so inspired. I probably sound a little nutty, but love new endeavors…especially ones I can share with my grandchildren and perhaps bring their lives a bit more joy.

Whosoever Will…

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” ~ John 3:16

“The Lord is good and glad to teach the proper path to all who go astray; he will teach the ways that are right and best to those who humbly turn to him. And when we obey him, every path he guides us on is fragrant with his loving-kindness and his truth.
